Keep A Breast Foundation joins the Girlz Garage at the Vans Warped Tour for the ninth year on the road in an effort to educate young fans about breast cancer prevention. KAB’s highly successful traveling educational booth will be fully interactive with contests, special guest appearances, charitable partnerships, and engaging ways to learn about breast health.
Highlights of KAB at the Girlz Garage at the Vans Warped Tour include:
Contests:
As part of Keep A Breast’s Music For Awareness Campaign, Keep a Breast and Fox will facilitate Shot In the Pit 2009, a photo contest during the 2009 Warped Tour to pick three talented amateur photographer winners to have their photos printed and displayed across the country. Fans can also learn about ways to throw his or her very own benefit show in support of the cause.
Guest Appearances:
Craig Owens from Chiodos will be doing acoustic performances in the Girlz Garage tent at most stops on the tour while Kynt and Vyxsin from CBS/Travel Channel’s The Amazing Race will be joining on select dates to help spread the message and sign autographs. KAB is the featured charity on ModLife.com so expect to see your favorite bands stopping by the tent to do live video broadcasting, mobile updating and twittering from the Girlz Garage.
Charitable Partnerships: Socialvibe.com will be on the road for this year’s Warped Tour launching a new grassroots movement called I Wear Pink - a way for you to wear and share your support for Keep A Breast while raising funds through your SocialVibe account. Visit the SocialVibe tent to receive information on how to earn donations for KAB as well as draw your own breast cast design to be uploaded to Socialvibe.com
Keep A Breast will also be partnering with fellow Warped Tour traveling charity Peta2 whom will be launching their summer campaign, Breasts Not Animal Tests, centered on Keep A Breast’s commitment to not use any percentage of donations to fund animal experimentation. It will include a co-branded campaign leaflet, tee and microsite.
Keep A Breast Foundation’s outreach efforts will also receive a boost from the Surf Industry Manufacturers Association (SIMA), who have selected the Keep A Breast Foundation as a SIMA Humanitarian Fund grant recipient based on its ability to communicate the importance of breast cancer prevention and awareness to younger generations through music, art and action sports.
“I Love Boobies” bracelets provided by national retail chain Spencer’s will be available for $1.00 for a second year in a row. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Keep A Breast Foundation with over $225,000 raised for KAB to date. For this year’s Warped Tour, Spencer’s Volunteer Army will provide two volunteers at each stop that has raised the most money for KAB and really showed a passion for philanthropy in store.
Education:
To kick off Warped Tour, Keep A Breast introduced their new video titled “Love Your Boobies” at the Warped Tour Kickoff Party featuring Warped Tour musicians informing fans on the importance of having a positive relationship with your breasts and healthy tips for breast health. Additionally, Keep A Breast will be returning with the “This is My Story” campaign, allowing youth around the nation to share their various, unique experiences with breast cancer. Concert Goers can also learn how to feel for breast changes using The Breastology Bag™ interactive sculpture breasts that stimulate the feel of harmful lumps versus the feeling of fibrocystic lumps.
